Loved your clip DiogoJ42.

An oldies meet sounds a great idea. It would have to be in term time though because we wouldn't want all those screaming kids around to spoil it would we!

I would need plenty of advance notice too as I live in Gloucester and it will take me a while to plan how to get there on my own using my bus pass!

I usually visit, with my daughter and grandkids, about 6 times a year but last year on each visit carried around several old plans and pictures of how the rooms in the Towers use to look but never ended up with enough 'on my own time' to explore. I think they use to do a guided tour but it had to be pre booked.

Hehe. I wanted to post the sketch where they cut a little girl's skipping rope, but I couldn't find that one.

Felt very old this evening when I wandered over to the nightwear section in Tesco thinking 'hmm...I might treat myself to a new pair of pyjamas!'

 

[Mark-Cal]

At least you didn't wander over to the nightwear section in Tesco and then completely forget what you went there for, that happens you know at our age !

We've been through this - you're not old yet, you're middle aged!

Its when you notice everything in your wardrobe is beige and you start buying M&S Magnolia bath stuff that its really time to worry

The dancing was not inappropriate, just drunken! You know us oldies can't handle our alcohol anymore!

The dancing was hilarious, and there's a video on Facebook to prove it.
